This contract falls under the category of school catering services, aiming to promote healthy eating among its 1230 pupils aged 11 to 18. The tender period will close on 25 March 2022, and the contract is set to commence on 1 September 2022, lasting until 31 August 2025. The procurement method being used is a selective approach through a restricted procedure, and submissions are to be delivered to the school located in the South East region of the United Kingdom. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in catering services, particularly those innovative in promoting healthy meal options for educational settings. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the school seeks a contractor willing to invest in enhancing the kitchen facilities. Thus, companies with experience in school catering, healthy menu development, or those capable of refurbishing kitchen operations would be well-suited to compete for this contract. ## Notice St Joan of Arc School is an academy situated on the High Street in the centre of Rickmansworth which is a small, prosperous, mainly residential, town in southwest Hertfordshire. The school is a Catholic secondary school with approximately 1230 pupils aged between 11 and 18 and it is part of the Diocese of Westminster. It is a mixed school and is non-selective academically but as it is a faith school the Governors encourage applications from parents/carers who wish their child to receive a Catholic education. The school has a large catchment area which extends from Rickmansworth into Buckinghamshire, the London suburbs and Watford.Overall, the school has an excellent reputation, is oversubscribed and academic standards are above average.The school is keen to continue to develop the catering service in the school. The school requires an innovative school catering service that will reflect the school's policy to actively promote healthy eating.The kitchen was completely refurbished, with the exception of the floor, 15 years ago. The kitchen is compact but is fit for purpose and is capable of providing both traditional meals and grab and go food. If the contractor is willing to invest in the kitchen area or the possibility of a catering pod it should state that this is the case in its proposal and this can be discussed in more detail at the presentation stage of the tendering process. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/14168a67-40aa-479d-a86f-f996209e500f | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 Feb 2022 | | Submission deadline | 25 Mar 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Aug 2022 - 31 Aug 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ST JOAN OF ARC CATHOLIC SCHOOL | | Locality | RICKMANSWORTH | | Post town | Watford | | Postcode | WD3 1HG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH2 Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire | | ITL 3 | TLH27 South West Hertfordshire | | Local authority | Three Rivers | | Electoral ward | Rickmansworth Town | | Westminster constituency | South West Hertfordshire | | Delivery location | TLJ South East (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 55 - Hotel, restaurant and retail trade services ### Codes - 55524000 - School catering services ## Release History - 11 Feb 2022 at 17:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/14168a67-40aa-479d-a86f-f996209e500f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/14168a67-40aa-479d-a86f-f996209e500f 11th February 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB163734 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.rmandcconsultants.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
